As baby booms go, “absence makes the heart grow fonder” isn’t just romantic bullshit; the psychological “wearing out” of sexual partners tends to reverse over time, and returning home after being away can be a very lustful experience.

I know that was a joke but, oddly enough, I actually like that idea and in a purely platonic way. As more of a “one last fatherly kiss goodbye” or what not. Though having an orgy with all those ghosts would… also be interesting.

Actually, I’m pretty sure that “burning-blood” is a magic item append from DnD4, and a “sap” is a thing you hit people over the head with to knock them out. – So this would be a particularly smelly magic weapon :)
